Dear FILM-users,
A big thank you to the 70 people (18% of FILM users) who completed our survey back in February 2020! I realized that I never shared the results. I have attached the complete report, but want to highlight some results:
77% of our users rated the training as “extremely good” and 75% rated the facility overall as “extremely good”, many thanks for your trust, we will continue to do our best.
The question if our microscopes are up to date was answered with ‘Definitely yes’ by 36% and ‘Probably yes’ by 50% while 14% did not think so.
Light-Sheet microscopy was very high on the list of new techniques and we have addressed this now with the new LS1 microscope at South Kensington and further grant applications for super-resolution microscopy and intra-vital
imaging at Hammersmith are submitted.
To acquire new microscopes and replace the existing ones, grant applications are very important and we rely on PIs and departments to support these. Many thanks for your contributions!
Best wishes
Andreas
